background
In 1961, Gasversorgung Süddeutschland GmbH (GVS) was founded with the aim of setting up a comprehensive natural gas network in Baden-Württemberg. In 2007 the network operation was founded as a subsidiary GVS Netz of the gas trading company GVS (Gasversorgung Süddeutschland) in order to meet the legal unbundling requirements . GVS Netz was initially only the operator of the transmission network and leased the technical facilities required for network operation from GVS (so-called lease model). Since the stricter unbundling requirements of the 3rd EU internal market package and the amended Energy Industry Act (EnWG) had to be implemented in March 2012 at the latest, further restructuring took place. From July 2011 GVS Netz was a sister company of GVS, with full ownership of the gas network.
Since March 1, 2012, GVS Netz has been trading under the name terranets bw . The name change seals the conversion to the so-called “ Independent Transmission Operator ” ( ITO), which is completely different from the trading activities of GVS in terms of name and external appearance.
EnBW has been the sole shareholder of terranets BW since August 2014 .
